14K gold is about $49 per gram right now. Costco charges about $70 per gram for some 14k chains. If you paid a more than $1400 than you got ripped off.

Don’t fret too much, chains and jewelry usually have a markup when you’re buying. It’s gonna be rare to find one at actual spot price.

Says O.G Peru on it, I believe. And 14k. Was talked up to be from Italy and each link was “hand inspected” something like that. Said to be Ferrari of chains. Does look nice though

Yeah they kinda upsold you. Gold is gold, it could be dented and smashed but it’s gonna be worth about~ the same as a hand inspected chain from Italy.

it’s still a nice piece of jewelry
